Discover the rare opportunity to own a truly special 66+/- acre farm property with approximately 4,000 feet of frontage along the picturesque Sandy River. Known to the family for generations as ''The Ponderosa,'' this remarkable property blends the character and tradition of a classic Maine farm with thoughtful updates and endless possibilities.
At the heart of the property is a charming farmhouse that has been completely renovated and reimagined. Taken down to the studs, the home has been thoughtfully updated with new insulation, sheetrock, select new wiring, hard-wired smoke detectors, and a newly added 3/4 bath on the second floor. Walls were opened to maximize the beautiful surrounding views, while the updated kitchen features new appliances and a spacious island. The result is a comfortable, refreshed home that honors its farmhouse roots while embracing modern living.
Outside, established fields stretch across the property, framed by mountain views and bordered by the Sandy River. A charming barn provides space for livestock, while multiple outbuildings offer storage and flexibility for equipment, hobbies, or future projects. Whether your vision includes horses, cattle, gardening, recreation, or simply enjoying the peace and privacy of a sprawling country property, there is room here to make it your own.
Spend your days along the river, watching sunsets over the fields as deer and other wildlife roam freely. Located between Sugarloaf USA and Saddleback Ski Resort, the property provides easy access to skiing, snowmobiling, ATV trails, hiking, fishing, and four-season adventure. The nearby Rangeley Lakes region is renowned for exceptional salmon and brook trout fishing.
A property of this size, setting, and history is increasingly difficult to find. Come experience 195 River Road and imagine what ''The Ponderosa'' could become for the next generation.
